Abstract
Dopamine administered continuously through osmotic pumps altered the P HA wattle response and in vitro leukocyte capillary tube migration in UNH 105 chickens. The PHA wattle response was suppressed significantly by 48 hr exposure to dopamine at a dose of 1 mu g/hr. Administration of 10 mu g/hr dopamine for 48 hr enhanced significantly in vitro leuko cyte migration.
